blankmind:How much impact would a $150/NetPC with no OS, just browser, has on MSFT. I know it's really not PC. But that would take away one SELL per those who just 'browse' or 'online shopping' or 'online trading' and turn the computer off. Example: my wife. We have 2 PCs and looking at 3rd or 4th. An appliance like $150 would make sense. I have small holding on MSFT, not expecting this STOCK performs as in the past, a steady 15-30%/year would be OK. A big back breaking trend is all I care to avoid. Or that segment is not a big dent for MSFT. Also, a lot of company meeting and business are using PC and internet combination. PC for preparing stuff, and internet to pull things together. Is that the reason INTC is bucking the trend lately.
